The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has reopened the self-slot selection window for its Sub-Inspector (SI) and Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) Exam 2025. This provides a final opportunity for candidates who previously failed to choose their preferred exam city. The deadline for this one-time selection is **December 4, 2025, at 11 AM**.
Applicants must utilize the feedback module available through their candidate login on the official website, ssc.gov.in, to submit their city choices. Failure to select a city by the stated deadline will result in the candidate being barred from the computer-based exam, and their admit card will not be generated.
City Selection Process
Candidates can access the self-slot selection facility via the candidate login section on the SSC website, ssc.gov.in. The process involves selecting a preferred city through a designated feedback module. This specific window is for those who missed the original deadline of November 21, 2025.
The Commission stated that the allocation of preferred cities for selections made during this reopened window would be on a "best effort basis." This means while preferences are considered, final allocation depends on availability.
For candidates who already completed their self-slotting during the initial window, city slips for the SSC CPO 2025 exam are already available on the official portal. These candidates do not need to re-select their cities.
